Morton Grove man rappels 27 stories for lung health

Posted By Respiratory Health Association, Community Contributor

Timothy Lueder of Morton Grove was one of 67 daring participants to rappel 27 stories of theWit Hotel during Skyline Plunge! Chicago on May 5. The event was sponsored by Respiratory Health Association to raise funds and awareness for local lung disease research and programs. Two-thirds of Skyline Plunge! participants rappelled because they have been affected by lung disease. Others got involved for the thrill of descending 278 feet down the Chicago building as family and friends cheered them on. "Skyline Plunge! Chicago is Respiratory Health Association's most unique event because it is the city's only urban rappel," said Gina Schwieger, Respiratory Health Association's senior director of special events. "It is truly inspiring to witness the enthusiasm of our rappellers, so many of whom are participating to support loved ones who have been affected by lung diseases such as asthma, COPD and lung cancer." Respiratory Health Association will hold another Skyline Plunge! Chicago on September 8. To register, donate or learn more, visit lungchicago.org/skyline-plunge. (Photo by Sooz Main)
